Table - best surf conditions forecast for Alize over the next 16 days.
Right, I’ve had a look at the charts and forecasts for this stretch, and honestly, it’s a tough run. The wind and swell just aren’t lining up for a decent session at Alize for the next couple of weeks. It’s a consistent break, a beach and reef setup that normally gets going, but we’re looking at a long stretch where everything’s a bit off.
The first proper surf recommendation doesn't kick in until Sunday the 12th of July. The swell hangs around 5 ft from the east, but that’s paired with a short, weak period of 8 seconds, and a moderate cross-onshore wind. The combined energy is moderate at best, but it’s messy and choppy, which is just poor quality. This pattern of moderate cross-shore or cross-onshore winds and weak, short-period east swell just keeps going. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
We see the swell slowly building through the week, hitting 7 ft by Monday the 20th of July, with the combined swell energy climbing into the moderate range (529), but the wind is still a problem—moderate cross-shore and cross-onshore, keeping it choppy and lumpy. The period never gets long enough to build proper power, staying at 7 or 8 seconds. For a beach and reef setup like this, those winds just kill the quality. It’s not a total washout, but it’s not a call to grab your board either. This setup actually looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, with that consistent side wind and building swell.
From Monday the 20th, the swell dips back down, and we get a few days where it drops to barely a ripple, with the combined energy falling under 100 by Thursday the 23rd of July. The wind stays fresh and lumpy. There’s a slight pick-up towards the end of the month, with the swell back to 5 ft and the energy getting stronger, hitting 332 by Sunday the 26th of July, but it’s still that same cross-onshore chop. There’s just no standout window of clean, lined-up surf in this forecast. Everything is compromised by the wind direction and the short, weak periods.
So, the honest take is: put the board away for now. There’s no single day or session that jumps out as worth paddling out for. It’s a blank run. For an area like this, that’s just how it goes sometimes. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, it’s a miss.

Information about the Alize Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Alize provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Alize can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Alize surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Alize) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Alize may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
